SanisandMS - has anyone used recently?

Post by jrbnewcastle » Fri Aug 18, 2023 6:11 am

Hi All,

Has anyone (recently) used SAniSandMS successfully in opensees/ openseepy?

The below script is for a single element drained triaxial. It works OK for the older version of Sanisand04 (Manzari Dafalias model), but will not work with SAniSandMS. There is sometimes an error:

SAniSandMS::setResponse -- Unrecognized response option "fabric"

In addition to the above (which could certainly be my modelling error!), if you try the tcl example for SAniSandMS provided in opensees (3.5) – copy and paste it, the output does not resemble the suggested visual output. The cyclic loading is applied properly, but the principle strain generation does not accumulate (ratchet), but cycles at a strain increment of around -4e-3. This is different from the ratcheting displayed in the output of the example and expected performance of the model. This tcl example is located:

https://opensees.github.io/OpenSeesDocu ... andMS.html

So I would be interested to hear if anyone has successfully used SAniSandMS in Openseepy recently?

And, if they have any suggestions ( I am trying very small time steps) …. or even perhaps there is something wrong with the model at the moment/ function parameter list (fabric deprecated?), as in the tcl example, as far I can see the output does not seem to produce the results shown in the example.
Many thanks in advance!

The drained TXL script for Manzari Dafalias (working) / SAniSandMS (strange results) is below (NB long running time due to small dT):
